Get the Flash Player to see these images.
Rachel Harrington has been doing things in the wrong order for quite some time. She had extensive radio play before performing her first live show, and she opened for Grammy winners and nominees before her debut full-length record was even a glimmer in her eye.
Reared among the Pentecostal pines of Oregon, Harrington's rural gospel roots shone through on her 2004 living room demo. That humble four-song EP spent 13 weeks on the AMA chart and garnered the siren stellar reviews. By 2006, Rachel was touring with her songwriting hero, Guy Clark, winning national songwriting awards, and performing at large festivals.
From the crossroads of country, folk and bluegrass, The Bootlegger's Daughter features some of the Northwest's finest musicians, and was co-produced with two-time Grammy winner Garey Shelton. The disc officially released on SkinnyDennis Records in May 2007, and in short order, has made its way around the globe, becoming a top-shelf spin on Bob Harris's renowned BBC program, hitting 1 on the Euro-Americana Chart, and climbing into the Top 40 on the esteemed Americana Music Association's radio chart in the US.
Rachel is currently touring internationally as a duo, joined by multi-instrumentalist Zak Borden on vocals, mandolin, guitar and various other weapons of mass destruction. A solid songwriter in his own right, Zak has toured extensively throughout the US and UK having worked with, among many others, Casey Neill, The Watson Twins, and his own platinum selling cousin, Willy Mason.
